[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 457562, member: 1991"] I have learned, in my experience with desktop publishing, to really HATE Word. It's a lot better than it used to be, a lot more user-friendly, but for layout work I still try to avoid it. I use InDesign these days, learned my way through every version of Pagemaker before that. I like the fine control with elements in the page. It should be possible to create a poster in a matter of minutes, especially if text and graphics are provided. Sometimes when something like this glitches, it is faster to reproduce it from what you've been given, than try to de-bug a buggy file. But if you can, find something graphics-based to use. Word will do the job if it's all you have, but I find it takes longer and I want to scream at it after the first ten minutes (especially when the task should only take two minutes!) Marg [/QUOTE]
